Center of gravity display requested

Hi LVFR,

very often when doing short flights with the A340-300 the nose during takeoff rises already when 60-80kts are reached with an TOW of ~165t. Then i tried to put some more wait to the front to move the center of gravity more to the front and it was better. But for the user it is not visible if the center of gravity is correct when setting some payload or cargo or fuel.
It would be helpful if it would be shown in the EFB and maby also marked red if it is too high or too low.

I know that there is a GWCG in the Lower ND but where do i get the information what the max /min cg is.

That's very good planning as when the plane is very light, its very aft and that causes issues on takeoff if not addressed, we will look into adding something on the EFB but in any case on the tutorial we have a chart showing the appropiate CG's
